Our adult Great Horned Owls that have been with us since we moved here in 2007 both died this past autumn. Colin from Coaldale Birds of Prey released 3 of their rehabilitated owls on our property last December 13. One stayed and the other 2 settled at our neighbours. We saw him/her until just after the cold snap in January, then no sign until about a month later. Then we started seeing 2! They hung around together, resting on tree branches during the day, then on March 19, she started nesting. We have a perfect view from our dining room window with the telescope. We are so pleased and hope to get young ones in April.
May 16: So far we have seen 2 owlets.

It is so nice to see that you can now follow your 2 new owls from the beginning. We all enjoyed your other Great Horned Owls for the past 16 years. Thanks for your photos.
